Works fine, but has issues – DS finder Review

We have about 8 Disk Stations, but can only use this app with 2 of them because it can't see anything on different subnets. Our wireless gives out addresses on one subnet, but if any Disk Station is on a different subnet it won't find it. It's the same issue with the Synology Setup Assistant. I think the problem occurs because they are basing the 'discovery' of a Disk Station off of the WINS server, but WINS isn't routable over multiple subnets. So you'll only ever find a Disk Station on the same subnet you are on. This kinda defeats the entire purpose of the app...sadly. :(
